X

CinemaNext, one of the
largest specialists in cinema exhibitor services in the world (Ymagis Group,
ISIN: FR0011471291, TICKER: MAGIS) and Texas-based movie theater company Alamo
Drafthouse Cinema, today announced the signing of an agreement for the
installation of the revolutionary EclairColor HDR (High Dynamic Range) at ten
locations in Texas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Missouri, Nebraska, New York
and Virginia.

“We’re excited to
become part of this HDR adventure with EclairColor,” said Alamo Drafthouse
Founder and CEO Tim League. “It’s part of our strategy to keep our investment
high when it comes to elevating the image quality of our projections simply
because our raison d’être is to provide the best entertainment experiences to
moviegoers with the right mix of programming: blockbusters, indies, foreign
films, documentaries and classic movies. The benefits of EclairColor HDR are
clearly visible to moviegoers with a significantly enhanced image and an
increased perception of details. The color range is much richer and the
gradients much more refined, even in the darkest colors.”

“We are thrilled to
seal this new alliance with Alamo Drafthouse, a cinema chain heralded for
unique programming events and high exhibition standards, right after
successfully completing our first test site at Alamo Drafthouse Mueller in
Austin back in September,” said Stan Hays, Managing Partner of CinemaNext North
America. “It’s an important milestone for our company in the deployment of a
powerful and affordable HDR technology across the States. We expect to complete
our first initial roll-out before summer in the cities of Dallas and Corpus
Christi (TX), Chandler-Phoenix (AZ), San Francisco (CA), Denver (CO),
Springfield (MO), La Vista/Omaha (NE), Brooklyn and Yonkers (NY) and Ashburn
(VA).”

EclairColor is a HDR
solution that combines a mastering process and select projection system
technologies from Sony Digital Cinema 4K and Barco, available through
CinemaNext. It provides cinemas with unparalleled image projection technology.
All types of cinemas - independent movie theaters, regional chains and giant
exhibition circuits -, regardless of their screen size, can be equipped with
EclairColor HDR. The equipment can be used to run EclairColor mastered content
as well as standard DCI content. To date, a total of 126 cinema auditoriums
have been equipped with EclairColor including 59 in Germany, 54 in France and 3
in the United Kingdom.
